Manage the MemSQL Connector
This applies to: Visual Data Discovery
The Symphony MemSQL connector lets you access the data available in MemSQL databases using the Symphony client. The Symphony MemSQL connector supports MemSQL versions 7.1 - 7.6.
Before you can establish a connection from Symphony to MemSQL storage, a connector server needs to be installed and configured. See Manage Connectors and Connector Servers for general instructions and Connect to MemSQL for details specific to the MemSQL connector.
After setting up the connector, create data sources that specify the necessary connection information and identify the data you want to use. See Manage Visual Data Discovery Data Sources for more information. After data sources are configured, they can be used to create dashboards and visuals from your data. See Create Dashboards.

Connect to MemSQL
The MemSQL connector requires a JDBC driver to be configured before you can connect to your data source.
Download and install the latest JDBC driver from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/. Instructions are provided on that website.
-
After installing the driver, edit the MemSQL properties file and change the driver path and class name properties, as shown below and as described in Add a JDBC Driver:
datasource.driver-config.class-name=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
datasource.driver-config.jar-path=<JDBC_driver_filepath> Save the properties file and restart the connector. See Add a JDBC Driver.
